Lonely
Teri Lewis 1984
Sometimes I wonder,
Why I’m here.
I work hard,
And keep my head down.
But somehow,
I don’t seem to go any where.
People belittle me,
And make me question myself.
About why I’m here,
And why I try so hard.
My heart hurts,
And my eyes full with tears.
I’m just hoping for a day,
Where I don’t feel so alone.
About this poem
Just a day and how I was feeling about life.
